For the first time since 1997-1998, a Brown University hockey player earned All-ECAC Honors. Sophomore Yann Danis (Lafontaine, QUE) was honored as the Second Team goalie, after earning First Team All-Ivy honors a week ago.

He posted a league-leading .938, save percentage, second all-time in the ECAC, and a 1.86 goals against average, third in the conference. A two-time ECAC Goalie of the Week and one time ECAC Player of the Week, Danis also earned USCHO Defensive Player of the Week honors twice this season.

He posted three shutouts, tying the school record for shutouts in a season, while his goals against average and save percentage broke the Brown season record for each of those categories. His stats reached as high as 3rd in the nation for goals against average and as high as 2nd in the country for save percentage, while currently standing at 5th and 2nd respectively.

The Bears finished the season with a 14-15-2 record and return all but one regular for next season, Brown's 78th of collegiate ice hockey.
